Roger Kean's foreword in Games TM's Retro Special

Post by Lloyd Mangram »

Hi folks,
once again (getting this feeling of deja-vu) I'll present you the scan of Roger Kean's foreword for Games TM's Retro Special.
(thanx to Mort for supplying the scan! :D )

Cool, Rob.

And I just noticed that they say they had permission to use Oli Frey's cover artwork ... does this mean they've spoken to Oli himself (whom I've found to be very elusive) or would it be more of a Newsfield Publications thing, I wonder?

AFAIK they have permission from Roger Kean & Oli. (I guess they're still partners?)
On another board I read that Retro Gamer now as well have permission to use Oli's stuff. (this was a discussion between people from both mags, so I guess it's true.)

It's nice to see and read stuff from the guys who 'invented' and produced the best games magazines. :)
